ANVIL API (Assent) Developer Thread

  1. messages per second. I'm not sure exactly what constitutes a "message" but sending an order is a message. cancelling an order and re issuing a new order is 2 messages

  2. I though you meant WM_ messages ....

    I cannot tell for certain if that is possible or not. Although I noticed that once you begin monitoring a large portfolio in your box (800+ symbols) and sending large amount of orders, Anvil internal queues backlog and disconnects your session ....

    Hi everybody I have some ideas that I’d like to apply a future blackbox, I have downloaded the APPI_2_6_7_66 and I also have download the visual express C++. I am stopped for the next reasons, I haven’t got any documentation to know how to continue and I don’t know if the express edition is enough to run the application.

    Any help or steps to follow will be welcome.

    Thanks.

  4. Did you downlaod teh sample apps ? They have a couple of project. Once you compile these ok then you are good to go.

    I do not know about the c++ express edition ...

    Yeah, I don't know about the Express Edition, either.

    I would THINK it would work, but that's just a guess. Most of what is missing involves resource editing, etc.

    Thank you for your fast answers guys I am having problems with the express edition because I am as soon as I build I get some messages saying that I need some files that apparently aren’t available for the express edition so now I am downloading the professional edition. I have started working in NY office, if any of yours is working in this area and is interested to meet to exchange ideas I think that can be helpful for all.

    Hi guys,

    I've downloaded today anvel api and tried it out. TraderExample works pretty good, but ExtExample crashes immediatealy after loading (i'm using anvil 2.6.7.76 and api 2.6.7.66). Any hints?

    Thanks a lot, appreciate any help!

  8. Have you debugged into it ? It will help if you can narrow down the call stack when it crashes. Also a full diagnosis (whgen does it happens, etc... )

    One thing to check: Make sure that you're using

    1. The Debug build of ExtExample AND the Debug build of Anvil.
    OR
    2. The Release build of ExtExample AND the Release build of Anvil.

    Mixing them up will cause problems.

    Hi again,

    I haven't debugged it yet, i spent a half of my day with the debug version of anvil:) I figured out, that it works only if Visual Studio 2005 SP1 is installed. Will check/debug ExtExample later.

    Another question: I read all threads in this forum and found a lot of very valuable information for me. Since Anvil API package doesn't contain any documentation, this forum saves a lot of time.

    Question: I found a lot ofinteresting things(like starting anvil with login "A", putting initial extension directory in the anvil.ini etc). What is the source for this information? Many people mentioned here, that Anvil is working currently on the API documentation and this is actually the information i've received from them too ...

    Thanks!
